Kane Williamson’s impact on New Zealand cricket is being highlighted. 

The Black Cap announced his retirement from the international game overnight, stepping back ahead of the second match against England.

“He’s a genius, and what he’s done at the crease over 16 years for New Zealand is unprecedented.”
